[B]Kabul, Afghanistan (CNN)[/B] -- Four Americans and a Briton were killed in southern Afghanistan on Wednesday, military officials said.
The four U.S. service members were killed when their helicopter was downed by hostile fire in Helmand province, said International Security Assistance Force spokesman Lt. Col. Joseph T. Breasseale.
The British soldier was killed in an explosion, also in Helmand province, the British Ministry of Defence said.

June is turning into a deadly month for international forces in Afghanistan -- 29 service members, including 15 Americans, have been killed, according to a CNN tally.[/quote]

I'm kind of getting sick of how CNN puts more emphasis on the American troops than the other Coalition forces.
Well, Americans started it. Americans are chasing an imaginary group. That's doesn't matter anymore. I'm now apart of the UFF.
Sad to see men dying for lost cause.

CNN is an American new's station. What do you expect them to do?
The BBC never reports on American deaths unless it was a particularly deadly day for coalition forces.

It's not that. It's an American News Site, reporting to Americans, of course it's gonna go into extra detail on American losses.

I can grab more links if you want, because there is tons.[/QUOTE]
Most of those were plural and in larger numbers and they were events that aren't that ordinary (Or in the case of the bomb something everybody wants to hear about).
There ARE other news stations then CNN in America and they do broadcast other things, CNN and Fox are 100% Americanized news though. Don't pay attention to what they say if you don't want to hear only about American troops.

...The Taliban is imaginary?
They are only a mere shadow of their former self, but they are still causing more casualties than they take. Which is why the whole war is worthless, they don't run out of forces, there isn't any stronghold to strike. It's just hunting a fox in a large, large desert filled with mountains, and you forgot to bring the dogs with you.

Apparently so.
